of times a manager has looked at your résumé.

checkbox before saving the information.
The following fields must be filled in before you can activate a résumé:
- Last Name
- First Name
- City

from the time it is last updated. You will be notified by email when your résumé
has been deactivated.
IMPORTANT! If there is no activity on your résumé for one full year (ie.
you do not review and re-save your résumé), your résumé will be deleted!

| Keywords |
|
Use keywords to describe your specific requirements or areas of interest. Keywords are not case sensitive. Searching by job titles is less effective because titles can vary from department to department. When typing in your keywords, you can type in just one word or try these suggestions for using multiple keywords:
To specify words that must all appear in the search results, put 'and' between the words
| Example 1: |
 |
|
"publishing and editor"
|
To specify words any of which may appear in the search results, put 'or' between the words
| Example 2: |
|
|
"publishing or editor"
|
To specify a word that must not appear in the search results, put 'and not' before the word
| Example 3: |
|
|
"publishing and not editor"
|
NOTE: Anything after the 'and not' phrase will be used to exclude items from the search results
| Example 3a: |
|
"publishing and not editor or magazine and layout"
will exclude all items with 'editor', 'magazine', or 'layout'
|
The search tools will look for the beginnings of words, so you can use common roots to find multiple words
| Example 4: |
|
"publish"
will return ‘publish’, ‘publishing’, ‘publisher’, etc
